Congratulations, RedLine Architectural Sheet Metal!

Last week, we had a great time celebrating the open house and ribbon cutting to welcome RedLine Architectural Sheet Metal to South St. Paul.

Previously located in St. Paul and operating out of two separate spaces, RedLine was looking for a location that better fit their growing business and needs—and they found it right here in South St. Paul.

RedLine specializes in fabricating and installing architectural sheet metal for commercial and residential buildings. Their work includes standing seam, soffit and corrugated panels, gutters, flashings, roof screens, snow retention, and more.

We enjoyed getting a behind-the-scenes look at their new space, touring the shop, enjoying some delicious smoked meats, and, most importantly, connecting with the RedLine team and our community. What a fun open house!

Be sure to check out RedLine Architectural Sheet Metal and give their welcoming team a call to learn more about what they offer.

Welcome to South St. Paul, RedLine! We’re excited to have you here and apart of our business community!

Thank you to Sovran, Inc. for hosting the Chamber Business After Hours event on August 19. It was a great opportunity to connect with fellow business professionals, and the cake was a fun and unexpected surprise. We appreciate your hospitality!

Save the Date: MidCountry Bank
